Pipe cutting apparatus, kit, and method

A kit for cutting differing sized pipes internally comprising:

• a first pipe cutting apparatus comprising:
• at least one cutting member to cut a first pipe internally;
• at least one drive member to rotate the at least one cutting member to cut the first pipe internally;
• at least one feed member to extend the at least one cutting member against the first pipe internally and to retract the at least one cutting member from the first pipe internally;
• and at least one clamping member to secure the first pipe cutting apparatus to the first pipe internally;
• and
• a second pipe cutting apparatus, differing in size than the first pipe cutting apparatus, comprising at least another cutting member to cut a second pipe internally with the second pipe differing in size than the first pipe;
• at least another drive member to rotate the at least another cutting member to cut the second pipe internally;
• at least another feed member to extend the at least another cutting member against the second pipe internally and to retract the at least another cutting member from the second pipe internally;
• and at least another clamping member to secure the second pipe cutting apparatus to the second pipe internally.

A method of cutting differing sized pipes internally comprising:

• clamping a pipe cutting apparatus within a first pipe using a first clamping member assembly of the pipe cutting apparatus;
• extending at least one cutting member of the pipe cutting apparatus against an internal surface of the first pipe using a first feed member assembly of the pipe cutting apparatus;
• rotating the at least one cutting member with at least one drive member of the pipe cutting apparatus in order to cut the internal surface of the first pipe with the at least one cutting member;
• replacing the first clamping member assembly with a second clamping member assembly differing in size than the first clamping member assembly and clamping the pipe cutting apparatus within a second pipe differing in size from the first pipe using the second clamping member assembly;
• or replacing the first feed member assembly with a second feed member assembly differing in size than the first feed member assembly and extending the at least one cutting member or at least another cutting member of the pipe cutting apparatus against an internal surface of the second pipe using the second feed member assembly;
• and
• rotating the at least one cutting member or the at least another cutting member with the at least one drive member of the pipe cutting apparatus in order to cut the internal surface of the second pipe.
